Case 2021 Halloween. New Knife Wrap?

The W.R. Case & Sons Cutlery Company has a very rich history that began in 1889 when William Russell (“W.R.”), Jean, John, and Andrew Case began fashioning their knives and selling them along a wagon trail in upstate New York. The company has produced countless treasures and it continues to do so as one of the most collected brands in the world.

Case 2021 Halloween. New Knife Wrap?

Post by Old Folder »

Last week I received my Case Happy Halloween Orange Synthetic Sod Buster Jr. # CA91502HW21
When I opened the standard Case box and slid the knife out, I noticed something a bit odd. The knife paper wrap has a slight Orange Color to it.
All my prior Case knives over the years have come with the standard boring recycled brown color as below.

Totally ignoring the knife, my eyes stayed focused on the new wrapper, as I unfolded the standard 7 & 7/8" by 6" paper and flattened it out with the palm of my hand. I noticed many of the Case Trademarks Case has used over the years imprinted on the paper.
Still ignoring the new Halloween knife, I took the paper to the kitchen and laid it out on the counter. It was till somewhat crumbled up but luckily not torn. My wife (The Queen Bee) looked at me very oddly, (Which is a common look) and asked "What on Earth are you doing now?" I attempted to explain, she blinded me with silence and retrieved the steam iron and advised me to "go away." I returned to my cage and finally admired my new Case Happy Halloween knife.
A few minutes later, she brought me the freshly ironed and flattened Case Paper wrap inserted within a Plastic Sheet Wrapper. She had also enlarged it to 11" X 8 1/2" on quality photo paper.

Oh, the knife is beautiful, well centered and sharp. Deep Etched Halloween Graphics. Brass Pins and Liners. The forward "Birds Eye" pin really sets it off. No half stop however.

Has anyone else received this new Case knife wrap in any other Case pattern?

Nice knife, and the paper wrapper is fantastic too! And it sure does make me feel better that someone else gets those looks from the wife too!

I use to get those looks from Cheryl about my knives, but now she just shakes
her head and ignores me. I have not seen that paper wrap yet, but that's a
nice holiday knife.... ::tu::
